Episode 273: Maneater, Clone Hero, Monster Hunter Rise Demo
ESharks, shreds and shmonsterhunter this week with Tommy, Ben and Adam on Filthy Casuals. Plus we talk news on a new Indiana Jones game, a new trailer of Bowser's Fury from the Super Mario 3D Land rerelease, and a bunch of other stuff as well. Probably. To be honest we recorded yesterday and I don't actually remember what we talked about. Like, broadly I know we talked about video games. And the three games mentioned in the title there. But if you're after specifics then quite frankly this description isn't going to be the place to get that information. My advice? Have a listen to the podcast. In there you'll find details on what is on the podcast this week.

Episode 270: Game of the Year 2020 - Part One
EYou'd be forgiven for thinking it might never have happened, but 2020 is nearly over and we're once again getting together our Game of the Year lists. Unique in the industry, Tommy, Ben and Adam from Filthy Casuals have cleverly invented a way to collate a list of categories in which games that were released during calendar year 2020 can be celebrated and ranked. Further to this, they have come up with an innovative and industry leading way to also celebrate a collection of overall "games of the year", a list of titles which for one reason or another warrant a particular level of recognition. It's the only place you'll find such an event on the internet, and we are proud to have pioneered such a concept. Please join us for part one of our two part special which we came up with and also perfected: The Game of the Year Awards!Patreon - weekly bonus episodes and secret Filthy groupBandcamp Premium EpisodesYouTube - including live streams and Let's PlaysTwitch Hosted on Acast.

Episode 269: Cyberpunk 2077 Review, The Game Awards 2020
EThe King Of Jacking In, Mr. Keanu Reeves stars in perhaps the most hotly anticipated and most hotly debated game of 2020: The Matrix: Path of Neo. Tommy “T-Pose” Dassalo, Ben “Blue Screen” Vernel and Adam “My Car Is Clipping Through That Other Car Haha That Actually Looks Pretty Funny I Dunno Maybe This Is Cool” Knox are here to share their thoughts on the controversy and the content surrounding Cyberpunk 2077. Are the bugs as severe as people are saying? Is the game behind them any good? Is it possible to cover all of the nuances of the enormous whirlwind of discussion about this game in one episode whilst also recapping the Game Awards? The answers to these questions are contained within the episode, as you could have assumed given the fact the episode is about Cyberpunk 2077. What a way to end such a weird year.

Episode 266: Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity
EI put it to you that Filthy Casuals is the Breath of the Wild of podcasts. Firstly, it is about video games, and Breath of the Wild is a video game. You cannot fault my argument so far. Secondly, Breath of the Wild is open and free form, and I think we do that as well. Two for two. Thirdly, sometimes we seem to be running incredibly slowly and there are times when we appear to be Nintendo exclusive. Case closed. This week we talk about the new Breath of the Wild sort-of-prequel Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, as well as further thoughts on Demon's Souls, the upcoming Cyberpunk 2077, and plenty more. In summary, I think you'll all agree with me when I quote the immortal words of Link from the hit Legend of Zelda series: "hyaaaaa!"Patreon - weekly bonus episodes and secret Filthy groupBandcamp Premium EpisodesYouTube - including live streams and Let's PlaysTwitch Hosted on Acast.

Episode 265: PS5 Launch Games - Demon's Souls, Spider-Man Miles Morales, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War
EThe big boxes have been delivered and there is now a PS5 in each of Tommy, Ben and Adam's hands, which quite frankly has made it very difficult to play video games. After putting the PS5s down and picking up controllers, the boys have gone in on an array of launch games, including Demon's Souls, COD, Spider-Man, Astro's Playroom, more Assassin's Creed, and even more besides. It is incredible to think that video games have truly been released. What a time to be alive and interested in video games. Congratulations one and all.Patreon - weekly bonus episodes and secret Filthy groupBandcamp Premium EpisodesYouTube - including live streams and Let's PlaysTwitch Hosted on Acast.

Episode 264: PS5 First Impressions, Assassin's Creed Valhalla
EThis week we’ve got a big burly bearded European warrior, a perky little robot, and also Tommy is on the show! Yes! Another classic Filthy misdirect! Speaking of things not going exactly how you might expect, neither Tommy nor Adam’s PS5s have arrived yet so Ben goes deep on the several hours he’s had with the PlayStation 5. Knox and Ben have played Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and the boys talk Mass Effect Legendary Edition and more news relating to the art form of video games.Patreon - weekly bonus episodes and secret Filthy groupBandcamp Premium EpisodesYouTube - including live streams and Let's PlaysTwitch Hosted on Acast.

Episode 262: Next-Gen Console Preview Reactions
We're just two incredibly long and arduous weeks away from new consoles coming out and quite frankly: I am excited. Big resolutions, beautiful graphics, buzzy and buttony controllers, boy oh boy it's a bevvy of bgood bconsoles. We've had a look at hands-on videos that are trickling onto the internet and we have thoughts to share. Would we have liked to get our hands on consoles ourselves? Yes. Have we? No. Are we furious an incensed? Yes, but that was already the case. It's a very exciting time in video games and we're very excited about at whether it takes a couple more weeks than we would have liked to actually get our hands on the things. Speaking of which, we also talk the Cyberpunk 2077 delay, and a whole bunch more.

Episode 261: Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit, VR Roundup
EMario Kart goes AR, all three of the Filthy boys have gone VR, it's hard to tell what's real and what's not these days. Did we actually record this, or are we now those AI generated voices you can do using computers? And like, even if we are AIs, like, what's the difference, man? If it's intelligence then like, what does it matter if it's artificial y'know? Aren't we, like, all artificial? In a way? Makes you think, in my opinion. We talk some Superhot, some Half-Life: Alyx, and a whole bunch more on this here episode of Filthy Casuals... or, like, DO we? You know what I mean?

Episode 260: Oculus Quest 2, I Am Dead
EThis week Tommy announces to the world that He Is Dead, Ben spends a lot of money on an expensive toy that you strap on to your body in order to have fun, and Adam spends too little time thinking about how to make discussions on I Am Dead and the new Oculus headset sound a bit funny in the episode description. We've also got a bunch more chat on the new consoles that are now less than a month away, which is officially Ridiculous, and more bits and pieces to go with.Patreon - weekly bonus episodes and secret Filthy groupBandcamp Premium EpisodesYouTube - including live streams and Let's PlaysTwitch Hosted on Acast.

In my opinion, this episode is CRATE! Hahaha hell yeah. Ok now read that back to me.

Episode 258: Paradise Killer, Genshin Impact
ETommy, Ben and Adam are going a little under the radar this week with reviews and chat about indie open-world detective game Paradise Killer, free-to-play Breath of the Wild """tribute""" Genshin Impact,Japanese visual novel/adventure/strategy game 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim and a little underground game that definitely doesn't have millions of viewers on Twitch called Among Us. We're pretty cool like that actually, kind of finding out about things first? You probably wouldn't have heard of most of these. Oh, you play Call of Duty? That's cute. I'm more into mass market appeal action RPGs from one of the largest video game developers in the world's most populous country.

If you are able to actually get your hands on any of it, of course. Tommy, Ben and Adam have gotten their hands on more than just Mario and Microsoft this week though, as they talk about the Big Bethesda Buyout, the Newest Nintendo Newsreel, the Coming Console Clash and Htommy Hand Hben Hlike Hplaying Hades.Patreon - weekly bonus episodes and secret Filthy groupBandcamp Premium EpisodesYouTube - including live streams and Let's PlaysTwitch Hosted on Acast.

Episode 256: PlayStation 5 Price Reveal
EGuide a dynasty through the centuries, ensuring the security and power of each new generation. That's literally the synopsis of Crusader Kings 3, Ben's new obsession, AND the mission statement of Sony and Microsoft as they prepare to release their new consoles. Wow, that really did line up quite well. Let's see what the next sentence in the synopsis is: Gather new lands and titles to cement your legacy. Ok well that could refer to games (titles) so that sort of works too. Anyway, we talk about the PS5 in depth, give brief reviews of Avengers and Crusader Kings, and mention our PAX Online panel from today as well. That'll do, punch it up if you like Adam. -Editor's note: Thanks, Ben.Patreon - weekly bonus episodes and secret Filthy groupBandcamp Premium EpisodesYouTube - including live streams and Let's PlaysTwitch Hosted on Acast.

Episode 254: Moon: Remix RPG Adventure
EOriginally released in 1997, Episode 254 of Filthy Casuals with Tommy Dassalo, Ben Vernel and Adam Knox was exclusively available in Japanese. Several fan translation projects were started, but none made it past a few minutes of work, as the translators began to realise that the episode was no in fact in Japanese, but rather a broken form of mock Japanese that was considered edgy, but still generally okay when the episode released in 1997. Since then, fans have been calling for an English translation of the episode, citing that "they should never have been doing the Japanese voices in the first place, this is so wrong." and "what the actual fuck is this?" Now, more that 20 years later, we are proud to announce the release of Filthy Casuals Episode 254 in English.

Episode 253: DC Fandome, A Short Hike
EA crazed psychopath with a high, whining voice. A secretive and vengeful billionaire. An alien who blends in with the population of Earth and has lived through things which would destroy a normal man. That's right, I'm talking about Harley Quinn, Batman and Superman who are being discussed this week by Tommy, Ben and Adam. As we come even closer to complete and total loss of our minds, we find the time to have a very original whinge about the quality of some of DC's multimedia, a separate whinge about Destiny 2 and the ethics of cutting content, but then a very positive conversation about A Short Hike and Manifold Garden, for which Adam does not get involved. It's the classic Filthy Casuals formula applied to another week of gaming news and reviews.

Episode 251: Halo Infinite Delay, Fall Guys Review, Cruel Bands Career
EDespite the fact that we announced this episode description many years ago, and recently heavily promoted that it would be released alongside Episode 251, our flagship episode, we have made the difficult decision to delay this episode description into 2021. We will use this extra time to make the episode description the best it can possibly be, and we appreciate our loyal fans giving us understanding in these difficult times. The episode will still be released as scheduled, but without a description to go with it, you may be wondering what the point is. We have thousands of descriptions already available, and this episode of Filthy Casuals is backwards compatible with all of them. Thank you all very much, and we will see you for the launch of Filthy Casuals Episode 251’s Episode Description in 2021! Stay safe.

Episode 250: Two Five Zero
EIn accordance with podcasting tradition, we celebrate our 250th episode with the customary "several lists of things that relate to the number two hundred and fifty". It is a ritual as old as podcasting itself (around fifteen years), and we are proud to follow in the footsteps of our forebears, the first podcast to have reached its 250th episode: Four Bears. It was a podcast where four bears growled about salmon. A true testament to the fact that literally any podcast can make it to 250 episodes. Here's to 250 more! And the 17 more after that, and then that's probably it. Our fifth birthday is coming up soon, so we'll probably do a little something for that, but for now thanks for listening everyone!Patreon - weekly bonus episodes and secret Filthy groupBandcamp Premium EpisodesYouTube - including live streams and Let's PlaysTwitch Hosted on Acast.

Episode 249: Paper Mario: The Origami King, Carrion Review, Xbox Games Showcase
Completely two-dimensional, horrific and disgusting, and underwhelming in spite of a lot of promise. Am I describing the three things mentioned in the title of the episode there, or is it a funny description of the personalities of Tommy Dassalo, Ben Vernel and Adam Knox? That's right, it's both! I've managed to perform a little bit of wordplay here in this episode description, and the world is all the richer for it. It's truly this sort of fun which can be had with the English language that makes the world's most popular dialect! I've not really looked into the reasons why so many people speak English, but I'm assuming that's the reason, anyway. Surely it's not a darker reason than that, right?

Cody joins the lads to chat about some of his favourite games and his recent descent into regular gaming life, and the boys touch on the Ubisoft Forward event, video game-related topics for talkback radio, and they even talk about little-known Nintendo game Breath of the Wild (briefly)!

Episode 239: The History of Video Games Part 3 - The Early 90s
Only 90s kids will understand this episode! Or look honestly probably 80s kids will get even more out of it since they were a little bit older in the early 90s so probably remember the era more vividly. And I suppose that goes for 70s kids, too. If anything, 60s kids were probably in the prime of their lives during the early 90s, so this might even be best for them. 50s kids would often have been raising families, so if that's you then this actually might be understandable for you too, since your kids would likely have been 90s kids. 40s kids have seen the world change so much during their lifetimes that I'm willing to bet they can adapt and understand this. 30s kids were born during the great depression and as we potentially head into another, we could use their wisdom, so I hope that they understand this and we can share our knowledge with each other. 20s kids who are listening to podcasts today must be sharp as a tack, they've got to understand this. 1910s kids, I don't know how many of you there are, but if you're reading this then thank you for your service during World War II, you are the greatest generation and anything that you don't understand during this podcast just contact me and I will call you to explain. 1900s kids, that's so crazy that you're here, you are maybe the 20th century generation that I am most concerned about being able to understand this, I'm so sorry if that's condescending. 2000s kids will understand this, you know what history is, you're probably still studying it. 2010s kids will understand this too, you have grown up with so much technology that I'm sure you can figure out older technology too, probably quite intuitively. So I guess I'm really only talking to the 2020s kids when I'm saying that you won't understand this. So get out of here, you dumb baby!

Episode 237: The History of Video Games Part 1 - The 80s and Before
We're taking a trip down memory lane for the next few weeks, so far back in this case that we have no memories of this particular part of the lane. Tommy, Ben and Adam go through the early days of video games up until the mid-1980s in this first part of a multi-week special on the history of video games.

Episode 236: Gears Tactics
A squad of bulky, musclebound beefcakes with thick armour, big guns, and gruff attitudes, are hosting this podcast about video games. This week Tommy Dassalo, Ben Vernel and Adam Knox take us through news including the Last of Us Part II release date and leaks, reviews of Gears Tactics, Cloudpunk and Help Will Come Tomorrow, and offer "advice" for new "podcasters".

Episode 235: Ray Tracing, Final Fantasy VII Remake Sealed Section
As the simulation of our world implodes, our simulations of video game worlds are getting slightly better. This week Adam tries out a bit of ray tracing on his fancy new graphics card and perhaps runs up against the fact that he has a very strong prescription for corrective lenses. Either that or ray tracing is a pretty subtle effect. What's not subtle? Final Fantasy VII Remake and its ending which Ben and Adam both go into in depth in a spoiler-filled sealed section at the end of this episode. Tommy's also been dancing like nobody's watching with Just Dance, and now all three of the Filthy Casuals boys are here to podcast like nobody's listening.Listen to our new Bandcamp episode creating a list of games you might want to play if you maybe, hypothetically have an indefinite period of isolation to get through, available now at https://filthycasualspod.bandcamp.com for free, or a hugely appreciated donation if you can.Subscribe the YouTube channel for our complete playthrough of Until Dawn, highlights and fan videos at https://youtube.com/c/FilthyCasualsIf you’d like to support us on Patreon head to http://www.patreon.com/filthycasualspod for free weekly bonus episodes, early access to Premium Episodes, the secret Patrons Facebook Group more!

Episode 234: Final Fantasy VII Remake Review
We really hope you enjoyed games that came out in the 90s for the original PlayStation, because remakes of those games are all you’re getting this year. This week it’s Final Fantasy VII Remake and you know what? It’s actually pretty good. Mostly. You can hear our review right here in this week’s episode, as well as some more chat about that weird Cooking Mama game and news of even more remakes.

Episode 233: Resident Evil 3 Review
Unnatural shuffling, haunting groans, and nightmarish, deathly husks struggling to draw breath. All these fun sounds and more picked up by our too-close-to-the-mouth microphones as we record this weeks episode of Filthy Casuals. Tommy and Adam have played the Resident Evil 3 remake, Ben’s put a little time into Final Fantasy VII (more to come on that next week), and there’s a surprisingly large amount of news including the new PS5 controller.

Episode 232: Half-Life: Alyx Review
After a 13 year wait, a new Half-Life game exists. No joke here, I’m genuinely excited about it. Could it mean more Half-Life games are not far down the track? Could it mean a return to the glory days of Half-Life 1 modding, as enthusiasm and creativity in VR grip talented programmers’ imagination? Could we be a short time away from a revolutionary equivalent to Counter-Strike, built for VR? Half-Life mods were so fun. Sven Co-Op. All those weird little single player stories. I would absolutely love for that type of thing to make a comeback into a VR headset. Just really feeling some Half-Life this week, folks. Hope you’re all doing well! Play some version of one of the Half-Life games, why don’t you? Alyx if you can, any of the others if you can’t. We also talk about Persona 5 Royal, Nintendo news (what??????!!!!!) and some other stuff. But yeah, Half-Life is back.

Episode 231: Animal Crossing New Horizons Review, Doom Eternal Review
Two complete polar opposites. One is calm, relaxing, charming, peaceful and pleasant and the other is intense, stressful, in your face, over the top and gratuitous. And also Ben and Adam have played Animal Crossing and Doom. Tommy has too, but the little thing I was doing there only fit two people in. See the little thing I was doing there?

Beautiful and 2-Dimensional, Adam listens to Tommy and Ben's review of Ori and the Will of the Wisps this week, along with more talk of the next Xbox and speculation about the PS5, an update on the Infinity Machine, and a bunch of other games and so on. Hope everyone's keeping happy out there, a little bit of video game discussion could only help.

Episode 226: Sonic The Hedgehog (2019) Review
